Samsung YP-K3J mp3 player

I have just cracked this problem with help from samsung , i got xp home version and could not use my new yp-u3 jzb player .
samsung told me that you need media player 10 or above and also service pack2 plus the usual "does your computer meet the requirements" stuff . anyway this is the breakthrough, they also told me that i may need this , an MTP PORTING KIT from microsoft and yipeeeeeeeeeeeeee it worked . here is the link

you will need to validate your copy of windows to get it.
after you install the porting kit go to DEVICE MANAGER and reinstall the drivers for the player and thats it , it should work , it worked for me..shame samsung don't mention this on their website, it would save alot of grief...

poeple i had the same problem:
the solution is pretty simple ur computer is to slow our main family pc is pretty old and i wouldnt charge on it but when i plugged it in my own computer i work charged and got recognised

It is actually a piece of trash, if the customer is presented a device, which only brings problems while it should do nothing but serve and work. How can it be that I have to look around for possibly missing files etc. as well as troubleshooting on internet while the device comes even with an installation-CD ?!?
And plus, how can it be for a manufacturer not to make a simple device such as a USB-stick (a bloody mobile flash storage device, that's what technically seen the thingy is) work properly and without big business ? Even more so at such a price.

Fiddled for an eve to make my girl's player work on the notebook. Zero and endless nerves; and I am really no greeny as to computers and all the tech. Samsung's been always good for reliable products with little hassle, but the handling of this device really shoots the lion.

My advice can only be either hands off or straight to the bin with it - alternatively right out of the window !

i dont have the installation disk for my samsung ypt9j..is there anyway i can go around this by having my computer recognize it??
